...that this truth was conclusive, beyond further argument. In a culture ruled by King and church, where the arts were easily accused of frivolity and sensuality, this was a colossal claim. Very rarely, an artist gets to transform the conditions of his culture--not just add to them or jog their evolution, but alter them decisively. This is what Picasso did for America and Europe in the 20th century. Perhaps less obviously, Velazquez did the same for Spain in the 17th century.

One of their ex-teammates is doing hard time...
...half time Webster is way ahead, 48-14. As the players jog off the field, a girl screams, "Bobby! Bobby!" But Bobby doesn't hear her. He still hasn't got his touchdown. In the locker room, Coach Ice throws cold water on them. "I don't want to be happy beating a bad football team by four touchdowns. If we play a good team, we can't do crap like this. I want to play good football all the time...
